Our history

It all started in 2001 in a small Brossard (Canada) office. Driven by a desire to be an entrepreneur and the desire to take concrete action in the environment, Dominic Colubriale founded Forest Fibers.

This new business started at a crucial moment: exports to Asia were rapidly growing. Forest Fibers established itself as the first Eastern Canadian company to export recycled waste and paper from Quebec and Ontario, to Asia.

From 20 employees in 2003 to more than 200 today, our company is a major force in the industry and a first-rate employer.

Present in important international markets such as North America, South America and Asia, Forest Fibers, already recognized as a global leader, changes its name for Ricova.

September 2015 – A new era begins as we change our name from Forest Fibers to Ricova.
